I teach kendo in the ninja world

After arranging for Mei Terumi and Guren, Araki took the other four people and left Nanakusa Island by boat again.

"Next, it's Hua Bing and Zabuza."

Araki looked at the two of them and said: "Hua Bing needs to see blood to initially strengthen his will, while Zabuza you need some less strong opponents to test new moves. So for you, the best Our opponents will never stop killing pirates on this sea."

Just like the bandits and bandits in other countries are also inexhaustible, in the vaster sea with a more complex environment, the number of pirates is probably much greater than that of bandits.

"A pirate..."

Zabuza nodded, and he knew in his heart that testing new moves could only be done when facing less strong enemies. If he faced strong enemies, he would be courting death.

but……

"You still have to carry this burden that will be so frightened by my murderous intent that you can't even move?"

Although this sentence was not spoken, Araki could clearly see his meaning from Zabuza's sideways eyes.

However, Araki used only one sentence to dispel all the dissatisfaction in Zabuza's heart.

"Zabuza, how do you think you can find traces of pirates on this vast sea? You know, I don't give you much time. In a week, the second phase of training will begin."

Araki asked directly.

Although we say that there are more pirates in the sea than on land.But what a vast area the sea is!

No matter how many there are, they are not something that can be encountered casually on the route.

If he didn't have excellent investigative skills, Zabuza would probably be alone in the sea for a week, and he would only find loneliness.

But with Huabing it's different.

Why did Araki have to assign Hua Bing and Honglian to different teams in the first place?

It is because although the composition principles of Crystal Escape and Ice Escape are very different, ice crystals and crystals have certain characteristics that are highly similar.

Although Hua Bing didn't show any detective ninjutsu, Guren knew it!

Yes, it is one of the signature ninjutsu of the Third Hokage.

——[The art of telescope]!

One theory is that Araki even suspected that the crystal ball used by the Third Hokage to perform the "Telescope Technique" was purchased from the Crystal Clan.

After all, he didn't have the ability to create a crystal ball himself.

Closer to home.

During the few days by boat to Nanakusa Island, under Araki's arrangement, Hua Bing successfully learned this ninjutsu from Guren, which can enable ultra-long-distance detection.

Facts have proved that in this regard, Ice Escape is indeed very compatible with Crystal Escape.

So, just when Momochi Zabuza was speechless by Araki's question, the considerate little angel Hua Bing held an ice crystal ball that exuded the slightest chill in his hands and said: "Zabuza-kun, look for the enemy. Just leave it to me!”

Seeing the clear scene of the surrounding sea reflected in the ice crystal ball, Zabuza immediately put away all the dissatisfaction in his heart and secretly upgraded Hua Bing's status from a burden to a useful tool.

"Since none of you have any objections, then it's settled."

Araki made a decision, and then took out a small scroll from his arms: "This is your goal this time, the Tiger Shark Pirates. You can read the specific information on the way."

……

After explaining the matter to Zabuza and the others, Araki directly drove the two of them off the boat on the next island.

"Go down and do the mission. Our journey will not go smoothly with you."

After Araki abandoned them, he waved and left without looking back.

After the ship gradually moved away, Kaguya Heigu said: "Boss, there are only two of us left. What tasks have you arranged for us?"

He turned to look at Yuri Lin, maybe it was the same sharp teeth, or maybe it was the desire and excitement for killing that occasionally showed up. In short, Hei Gu quickly accepted this man who seemed to be younger than him. A not too old girl as a teammate.

"Don't worry, for you two, your mission in the Chunin Exam is to kill the enemy. Therefore, you will definitely like my next arrangement."

Araki smiled mysteriously, "But before arriving at the destination, I also prepared some interesting things for you."

……

Unnamed Island.

Although this is a place located in a remote corner of the sea, its reputation is widely spread among dignitaries who have reached a certain level of status.

To put it simply, it is a gold-selling cave on the sea.

The Araki trio, wearing black robes and masks, finally arrived at the outskirts of the island after several days of drifting.

Lin Eoyu Yuri naturally didn't recognize this place, but Kaguya Heigu, who had a family background, was stunned.

"This is……"

Obviously, although he had never been there personally, he had heard the elders mention it in his family about the pattern painted on the island pier.

"Yeah, just what you think."

Araki said softly, "How about it, do you want to play in the arena?"

The arena here is a place specially opened to those dignitaries for gambling and fighting.

The tools for gambling and fighting are the ninjas raised by each of them.

Not all ninjas can enjoy such a semi-independent status as the Great Ninja Village.

Even in the poorest Sunagakure, no, not to mention Sunagakure, no matter how small a country it is, as long as it has a ninja village, the ninjas living there can say that they are living a pretty good life.

However, in this world, how many countries have ninja villages, or how many ninjas are there in ninja villages?

During the chaotic Warring States Period, ninjas, a profession that was very good at killing, were already well known and were employed in large numbers.

In this process, only a very small number of people can maintain the independence of their own ethnic group.

After most of the ninja clan were defeated or even wiped out during the mission, where did those clan members who survived and were not killed go?

Wandering is a choice.

But this also requires a certain amount of strength to ensure your own safety.

More people will choose to completely surrender to a powerful so-called nobleman and become the other party's retainer.

Of course, the word "retainer" sounds nice, but in fact, their life and death are decided by their master's whim.

During the Warring States Period, such examples happened every day and were countless.

A large number of nobles or wealthy businessmen maintain many strange ninjas.

After all, at that time, ninjas were against each other on the basis of ethnic groups, and no one stood up to speak out on behalf of the ninjas as a whole and gain sufficient status for them.

Let’s give a more relevant example.

During another commission, the A-nin clan and the Uchiha clan became hostile parties.So after the Uchiha clan paid a small price to defeat the A-nin clan, would they still care about how the remaining clan members of the other party are living?Are you living with dignity?

Will not!

Until a man named Senju Hashirama appeared.

He is from the top ninja clan - Senju of Mori, and possesses the most powerful talent in the clan - Wood Release.

With his efforts, the ninjas ended their Warring States Period and transformed into a new situation of one country and one village.

At that time, most of the far-sighted ninja clans saw the superiority of this system, so following the country of fire, the four countries of wind, earth, thunder, and water also established their own ninja villages, followed by grass, rain, Tang and many other small countries.

And what about those ninjas who failed to catch up with the tide of the times?

What happened to the Uzumaki clan is basically a microcosm of them.

After these large and small ninja clans were wiped out, many of the remaining clan members were captured by nobles or wealthy businessmen.

After all, being supported by others is considered by many to be a superior choice than wandering alone.

——Just give up your dignity.

Most of the contestants in this arena located on Wuming Island came from this way.

As for grabbing it directly?

That's not impossible.

But the problem is that although the nobles and wealthy businessmen are selfish, if a ninja directly assassinates them, they will unite in an instant and hire ninjas from the ninja village to hunt down the perpetrators.

How can a wandering ninja be a match for the elites trained by each ninja village?

Even if he can escape one or two waves, can he still kill everyone?

In the end, the chicken will be killed to scare the monkeys.

Unless ninjas all over the world unite to overthrow the national system, the five major ninja villages are actually the best thugs to help the powerful maintain their power and status.

Because, as long as they have money, those people can hire ninjas powerful enough to kill those who offend them.

They obviously possess extraordinary power, but in the end they kill each other under the command of the powerful because of money. This is the grim situation faced by the ninjas.

What is even more speechless is that in this world, no ninja thinks that such a thing is abnormal.

They don't feel like there's anything wrong with what they're doing.

Someone gives me money and tasks, and I just do them. Is there anything wrong with that?

As for what the mission is, should the person you want to kill be killed?

This is not something to consider with a killing tool.

Of course, judging from the average graduation age and education level of ninjas, they may not be able to think of such a problem.

Let’s bring the topic back to the arena.

The ninjas raised by the powerful are here to perform duels for their entertainment like watching animals. As long as a normal ninja sees this scene, he will inevitably have a kind of sympathy and pity.

But since this place has been able to develop for so many years, even if the original view turned from bright to dark because of concerns about the five major ninja villages, it still exists.

This shows that the supporters behind it are very important.

Its transition from light to dark is like giving a step to the five great ninja villages, as if to say: "Look, we have already given in. Can you just get off this step?"

And this step must be climbed by the five great ninja villages.

Because they still need to maintain their relationship with the country behind them.

However, even though he couldn't stand it, Araki brought Heigu and Ringo here today not just for a killing spree.

In other words, it's not to kill someone personally.

……

arena.

As the brightest star in this gold-selling cave, the grand arena located in the center of the island is full of people and brightly lit all day long.

Araki used the transformation technique to adjust his appearance, and also changed the shape of [Sameki].

After all, Samehada's muscles are still a bit too conspicuous.

"I want to register."

When the registration staff at the arena looked up, the first thing they saw was a pair of black short boots and white trousers.

Looking up, the burgundy shirt with fine patterns and the open black windbreaker reveal a unique charm that coexists with elegance and wildness.

Passing by the brass cross hanging on his chest, a pair of sharp eagle-like eyes frightened him so much that he immediately took a step back, and then he could fully see the face of the person coming.

The other person has short black hair, a short beard on his chin, and a black hat with white fluff on his head. If you ignore the long black sword on his back, then this is a perfect nobleman with elegant temperament.

When the staff saw this, they immediately asked in a cautious and respectful voice: "Sir, do you want to register for today's competition?"

"Not bad!"

"So, may I ask your name..."

"Mihawk!"

"Okay Master Mihawk, then what are the cards you are going to send out..."

"..."

Araki pondered for a while and asked: "I heard that the contestants here have their own nicknames?"

"Yes sir."

The attitude of the staff was very flattering: "If you are ready, you can tell us now. When the time comes, the host will announce it directly. If you haven't thought about it yet, you can also reveal a little more about their characteristics. We can help you come up with several louder names for you to choose from.”

"That's not necessary," a relaxed smile appeared on Araki's lips, "My first player is nicknamed [Bone King], and his name is Ainz Ooal Gown."

"Bone King, Ainz Ooal Gown, sir, I have completed the registration for you."

"The second one calls, [Thunder and Rapid Rain] Keqing!"

"Thunder comes quickly, rain comes quickly, and clear weather comes soon..."

After the staff completed the registration, they said with a smile: "Sir, your hand cards have been registered. Please follow our service staff to the VIP box in the audience area to wait. As for these two players, we will help them as soon as possible. Arrange the battle."

"Well, lead the way."

When Araki turned around to leave, a wisp of breeze reached the ears of Kaguya Heigu and Lin Yuri.

"There is no need to have any restrictions here. You two can just go and kill them. Although the ninjas here are pitiful, they are also hateful, so there is no harm in killing them. I will handle any consequences, so there is no need to worry!"

He had long disliked places like this.

Before, he lacked strength and had no time to move freely, but now that he was here this time, he was ready to take the opportunity to cause trouble.

After all, with his strength, there are not many people in this world that he needs to worry about.

Besides, the troublemaker is the noble swordsman Mihawk. What does it have to do with his Kirigakure jounin Araki?
